After serving the community for decades, Stanton Negley Drug Company will close its doors
Stanton Negley Drug Company, a locally owned pharmacy serving the Highland Park community for decades, will officially close on August 30. A sign on the front door recently announced the closure, leaving many residents upset. "It's a shame to see them go, you know," said Cathy Kelly. "This pharmacy is central to how I live my life here in Highland Park," said Rachel Hermes. Customers say Stanton Negley Drug Co. wasn't just a place to pick up medication, it was a place where people knew your name and cared about your well-being. "I know that I'm going into a place where people know me and care about me," said Hermes. "I think about the health impacts that's going to have on this community." "Anyone from all across Pittsburgh would come in for prescriptions, anything of that sort," said Isabel Lam. "Sometimes I would stop in for eggs, but it is really upsetting." The pharmacy has been under family ownership for decades, most recently run by Meyer and Steve Simon. After both passed away last year, the family made the decision not to continue operations past this month. Customers we spoke to say it was the family's passing, along with citing rising costs and the growing challenges of running an independent pharmacy, that led to the closure. "The way Medicare reimbursements and things are working, they're losing money on prescriptions when they fill them a lot of the time," said Hermes. As larger chains continue to outshine smaller independent pharmacies out of business, closures like this are becoming more common, and they're forcing customers to consider where to turn next. "I want to support another independent pharmacy, so I'll probably look into neighboring neighborhoods," said Lam. "It would be a tragedy - especially since there are a lot of older people who live around this area," said Kelly. Customers have until the end of the month to have their prescriptions transferred. KDKA has reached out to the current owners for more information about the decision to close, but has not yet received a response.

They lost the titles to Lynch and Lyra Valkyria at WrestleMania 41 before regaining them a night later on Monday Night RAW.

Cathy Kelly on cancer and the importance of mental well-being
In the latest episode of RTÉ's acclaimed podcast Insights with Sean O'Rourke, our host sits down with best-selling author Cathy Kelly for an intimate and wide-ranging conversation. Listen back above. One of Ireland's most beloved novelists, Cathy Kelly has garnered a global readership and commercial success that once saw her out-selling literary giants such as J.K. Rowling and Dan Brown. Before transitioning to fiction, Cathy had a distinguished career as a journalist, working as a feature writer, agony aunt, film critic, and columnist. She made her literary debut in 1997 with Woman to Woman, which became a number-one bestseller. After publishing two more successful novels, she left journalism behind to become a full-time writer. Nearly three decades and 23 novels later, Cathy remains as prolific as ever. Her latest novel, Sisterhood, was released in paperback earlier this year, marking a significant milestone in her career following a personally challenging period. In recent years, Cathy has faced a breast cancer diagnosis, a divorce, the sale of her family home, and a new chapter with a new partner. Despite these upheavals, her writing continues to resonate with readers worldwide. In this insightful episode, Cathy opens up about her writing process, coping with her recent breast cancer diagnosis, and the importance of mental well-being during treatment.
